Excuse me for not fully reading the discussion on the forums, but what about the environment? Are duels being held at an open place, arena or random? What I'd like to know is how much one can use his environment to win a fight.

Hmm, true. Yet using strategus doesnt sound that stupid, each team gets a budget and has to buy equipment with it, every team gets 15 tickets. If you die, you have to wait at spawn for the next "round". If you defeat all 5 of your enemies, you can chose to respawn yourself (trough tk/free kill) to reset hp/ammo. Best of 3 rounds, ofc.
